Is FIFA18/19 overrated?
If you have a bunch of teenage friends who are obsessed with football,then maybe.

Previously most of my friends were obsessed with it. I have never been a bigger football fan though

I was never that interested in national football games. But I'd say any non-sports related EA game is 100% overrated

Don't waste your time and money with the Wii U. All of the good games have been being ported over to the Switch anyway (the exceptions will probably come in the future), so if you want it to play games, just get a Switch.
I literally don't give a shit. I'd rather waste my own damn money just for something already ported to the Switch. Besides, playing them with the gamepad feels comfortable to hold since it was conveniently designed for my hands.

That quote does not apply to you in any way. It only applies to those who have not had a Wii U (since it really isn't worth $700 to access games that have been ported to a $300 console that also has new games on it).

Undertale has been mentioned I think but it's overrated.

The backstory, planning, lines, hints, clues, battle details, everything is so well planned out.

But, everybody is going over Sans, and even if he's the most powerful, the fandom is childish with a bunch of "AUs". (I still like his theme. No regrets.)
undertale died probably, but i think barely enough ppl talk about deltarune? I've been missing out

There's less hype (imo) for Deltarune although it's famous and well known by now.

Bump!

I find Anthem to be as overrated as freaking fortnite and OW for 2 perfectly good reasons:
  • It's made (or licensed) by freaking EA, in other words, it's Pay2Win!
  • It's the same as most of the trash modern gaming has to offer.

I think the reason people don't talk too much about Deltarune is because a lot of stuff is very ambiguous and it's only the first part of it.

Yeah I agree with you on that. A game should not have a single thing as its entire selling point, especially when it's pay to win.

I know that both Bowser's Inside Story and Super Paper Mario are highly regarded games in ther respective series, but I honestly think that both of these games are the second worst entries in their series and just tedious to play.

Super Paper Mario's "battle System" (if you can even call it that) is just unengaging, if it didn't have Level-Ups, it would be even more pointless and time wasting than Sticker Star's battle saystem. Not to Mention that many levels feel like TTYD's fourth chapter except amplified. You get into a level, reach a dead end, do something in a previous part of the level and then get to continue.


The actual inside of Bowser in BiS consists of annoying 2D sections. This was always so disappointing. There should be so many different creative ways to design the inside of an anthropomorphic, fire breathing turtle yet everything just looks generic to me. Heck, there are barely any npcs in his body and not a single town, so you just rush through one of these glorified 2D dungeons and never come back again. The actual overworld sadly isn't much more interesting either, BiS's Mushroom Kingdom consists of Peach's castle, Toad Town, plains, a forest, a beach and Bowser's castle. The only location with a unique identity is the underutilized Cavi Cape, Bowser's tutorial section which is relevant for like ten minutes.


I still enjoy both games, but don't love them as much as some of the other entries in those series.

Fortnite.
Enough said. Why does everybody enjoy waiting 20 minutes for somebody to shoot so much?

Exactly! This is the reason why this generation of games are fucked-up, and flood the market with fps games.

And the only movie Mario appeared in as far as I know has a convoluted plot (Dinosaur universe??? Seriously?), weird looking characters (https://www.mariowiki.com/images/5/54/Goomba_Movie.jpg) and bad voice acting.
